This thread aims at comparing and contrasting between a wholesaler and a retailer and ascertain which may be better or come to a suitable conclusion.
First and foremost taking a wholesaler into consideration, this is the link between the producer and either the retailer or consumer. Such a person buys in bulk and resells to the retailer in medium quantities.
They have the advantage of getting subsidy from producers and many other privileges that manufacturers may give out. For perishable products, wholesalers may have to battle and cope with losses at some point.
A Retailer as stated earlier, buys goods and commodities in medium quantities from the wholesaler and sells in bit to consumers.
They are not very susceptible to losses on perishable products as they purchase a lesser amount and sell within a short period of time.
Which ever of the two you decide to pick as better depends on your considered factors and both of them are of course an important link in the chain of production.
